I want to present you with two strategies to overcome this gigantic monster you grew over the years.

1. Keep Overthinking To The Point It Makes You Absolutely Sick And Tired. You started this, now finish it. Get so involved in this overthinking that you are making yourself absolutely sick.

Push your thinking as far as it goes. Get it all out of your system. Cry, scream, do whatever you have to do until you say “enough is enough”.

If you do this beware, you will find yourself in a very, very low spot! Which is great! It’s exactly where you want to be! Get as low as you can.

You have to commit to a new life. If that means going down to rock-bottom then go there, and come back up stronger than ever!

The only way you will come out of this cycle is if you finally decide that you are done living this life, but you have to commit yourself fully to this. No more of this passive lifestyle, no more sitting in your room, no more distractions.

You get in life exactly what your standards are and what you hold yourself to. If you hold yourself to being an overthinker that is doing nothing with their life, then that is exactly what you will get.
